You can watch the video of it here. The next live show is on May 13 at 5:00 PM Pacific time. Watch here.

My guest will be pilot/author Alex Stone. We will discuss his darkly comic "Hauling Checks" - a novel that takes the reader inside the world of the nighttime, shady operators of "Checkflight", a fictitious, but not entirely unrealistic, company of bad actors in the aviation world. It's part "Catch-22", part "Fear and Loathing..." and nothing like any of the "Fly With Me" stories I produce. This should be a fun one! Oh - the first two callers to the show via Skype will receive a free copy of Alex's book!

Chris and I will discuss travel photography - and you can submit photos for us to talk about in this flickr group.

Plus, I included an interview in this podcast that I recorded on my last trip - it's the usual stuff -- there's brain injury, Cowboy poetry, and ladies underwear etc ... all in the same story.

]]>07:16cleanpilot,flying,airlineAnnouncing Fly With Me Live - Feb 21Tue, 09 Feb 2010 00:02:00 +0000Fly With Me Live will stream live on Feb 21 at 1:00 PM Pacific Standard Time! You can see the show at the Fly With Me Live show page at Ustream. Please drop by ahead of time (now?) and click "RSVP".

My guest will be Flight Attendant Betty from the Betty in the Sky With a Suitcast podcast. She'll join us via Skype video chat. You'll also be able to participate in the discussion via chat and Skype call-in, if everything works as planned.

I also hope to include a segment where I encourage pilots to call in and talk about checkride stories ("Checkride Check-in"), so if you have stories you want to share, email me -- or just call in during the show!

You may think you know the answer to this question, but you might be surprised to hear what I learned while producing this episode. I worked together with Markus Voelter (omega tau podcast) to explore the question more accurately.

If you don't already know the answer to this question, or aren't too technically inclined, don't worry. We try to simplify it enough to give you a good idea of what's going on. If nothing else, you'll spur an interesting conversation at your next cocktail party.

Also, don't forget I'm planning a live video broadcast sometime soon. Follow me on Twitter for updates: @Joe_dEon]]>39:00cleanflight,pilot,airline,airplaneAn Update (With an Insight Into the TSA Watch List)Mon, 11 Jan 2010 01:45:00 +0000This is not a full episode, but rather a quick update with a special announcement, as well as an interview with a pilot who tells a rather surprising story about the watch list.

The special announcement is this: I'm planning to do a live video broadcast via Ustream some time in the near future. I'll post updates about it on Twitter: http://twitter.com/Joe_dEon

You can also send me an email asking for a notification. I'll send out an email when I have a date and time established. The email is this: ---> [my first name] podcaster @ gmail.com

]]>11:30cleantravel,pilot,security,airline,tsaFly With Me Episode 24Sun, 20 Dec 2009 02:51:00 +0000Becoming a pilot is not an easy path, and it takes motivation. Here are three true stories (and one totally made up one) about what motivated some of us to become pilots:

Ira went to England as a child ... never suspecting how the adventure would change his life's path ...

Kenya found herself on the wrong path, and needed someone to give her an extra nudge to believe she could become a pilot ...

And Tom had an experience as a young man that changed his life forever.

Plus, I tackle fiction for the first time ... enjoy!

Well, there's more from them in this short episode as well as an announcement by me about my upcoming podcasts -- basically what I say is I'm creating a "podcast season" for myself to avoid podfading. So new episodes are coming March 1!

]]>All Is Not LostFri, 27 Apr 2007 00:38:00 +0000I saw one young woman fly into the arms of her
returning soldier, she was swallowed up in one of those long, close,
hugs that says so much more than words could ever say ... they stood
there locked in an embrace for a long time, oblivious as other soldiers
filed past them.

And I saw another couple do exactly the same
thing -- and then a third -- it was starting to look more like a
Saturday night at a dance hall rather than an airport terminal - except
for the fact that other soldiers continued to file past them coming
off the plane.

That's what it looked like -- this is what it sounded like ...Download]]>I Finally Put That Pilot Hat Back OnThu, 19 Apr 2007 04:45:00 +0000 I'm back to work. Back to flying airplanes. After 2 months off,
recovering from my broken ribs, I finally put on that uniform -- more
importantly, both in a figurative and a literal sense, I put on my
captain's hat -- more about that in this episode.

Plus I'm finally going to make good on a promise I made in episode
15 of Fly With Me (the second Freddie Laker interview), and I respond
to some comments and emails you've sent.

]]>Fly With Me X Post 04-14-07Sun, 15 Apr 2007 00:21:00 +0000I've always kind of played a little game in my mind -- you know like those
little parlor games you play where you ask people what books they
would want on a deserted island, or where you ask "If you could invite
five famous people to dinner living or dead, who would it be"? Well I always though it would be more telling to ask "If you could sit in
first class next to anyone -- currently living -- who would that
be? And what would you say to them?" This question has the advantage
that it could really happen. You might realistically, in your lifetime,
have that happen.

Well, for me -- if anyone ever bothered to
ask me that question, "Who would you want to sit next to?" the answer
has always been, without hesitation ...

It's even worse if you get behind. And I'm way behind. No -- I
haven't flown with outdated charts -- in fact, I haven't flown at all
in the last two months.

Recently, the cockpit video from the 2003 A-10 "Friendly Fire" incident in Iraq was leaked to the public. As a former A-10 pilot myself, I have strong feelings about this episode, and I want the public to understand what happened and why. I play audio clips from the tape, and explain what they mean.

This one was accidentally picked up in the libsyn feed because I had checked "Smart Feed", which sounded like the ... um ... smart thing to do ... but it wasn't. So you may have heard it already -- it's my BBC interview with Dotun Adebayo. You can hear what the BBC actually aired here. Click on "Listen to the Show" in the right hand sidebar. It helps to then click on "play in stand-alone real player" -- it's somewhere around six minutes in.

]]>03:31noSpecial UK Terror Plot EditionFri, 11 Aug 2006 00:11:00 +0000This episode was originally going to be posted only at Podshow like my last mini-episode, but I changed my mind. I figured too many people would miss it. You might get double-downloads of this one if you followed my advice and subscribed to both feeds. Sorry. I won't do it again.

It's a Podshow exclusive! I've decided to make certain episodes available only on Podshow, mainly because I think the new Podshow+ site lends itself well to a certain type of episode -- I talk about stuff I wouldn't include in these episodes here, like current events in aviation, issues that affect us in the industry etc.... I also plan to include random interviews, and to read some of your emails there. I hope to post much more frequently at the Podshow+ site, so check it out ... but stay tuned here for future full-length episodes.
